CMU 15-721 (Spring 2018)

DATABASE INDEX

A data structure that improves the speed of data retrieval operations on a table at the cost of additional writes and storage space.

Indexes are used to quickly locate data without having to search every row in a table every time a table is accessed.

3

CMU 15-721 (Spring 2018)

DATA STRUCTURES

Order Preserving Indexes→ A tree-like structure that maintains keys in some sorted

order.→ Supports all possible predicates with O(log n) searches.

Hashing Indexes→ An associative array that maps a hash of the key to a

particular record.→ Only supports equality predicates with O(1) searches.

4

CMU 15-721 (Spring 2018)

B-TREE VS. B+TREE

The original B-tree from 1972 stored keys + values in all nodes in the tree.→ More memory efficient since each key only appears once

in the tree.

A B+tree only stores values in leaf nodes. Inner nodes only guide the search process.→ Easier to manage concurrent index access when the

values are only in the leaf nodes.

5

CMU 15-721 (Spring 2018)

OBSERVATION

We already know how to use locks to protect objects in the database.

But we have to treat indexes differently because the physical structure can change as long as the logical contents are consistent.

LOCKS VS. L ATCHES

Locks→ Protects the index’s logical contents from other txns.→ Held for txn duration.→ Need to be able to rollback changes.

Latches→ Protects the critical sections of the index’s internal data

structure from other threads.→ Held for operation duration.→ Do not need to be able to rollback changes.

A SURVEY OF B-TREE LOCKING TECHNIQUESTODS 2010

CMU 15-721 (Spring 2018)

LOCK-FREE INDEXES

Possibility #1: No Locks→ Txns don’t acquire locks to access/modify database.→ Still have to use latches to install updates.

Possibility #2: No Latches→ Swap pointers using atomic updates to install changes.→ Still have to use locks to validate txns.

L ATCH CRABBING

Acquire and release latches on B+Tree nodes when traversing the data structure.

A thread can release latch on a parent node if its child node considered safe.→ Any node that won’t split or merge when updated.→ Not full (on insertion)→ More than half-full (on deletion)

17

CMU 15-721 (Spring 2018)

L ATCH CRABBING

Search: Start at root and go down; repeatedly,→ Acquire read (R) latch on child→ Then unlock the parent node.

Insert/Delete: Start at root and go down, obtaining write (W) latches as needed.Once child is locked, check if it is safe:→ If child is safe, release all locks on ancestors.

OBSERVATION

Crabbing ensures that txns do not corrupt the internal data structure during modifications.

But because txns release latches on each node as soon as they are finished their operations, we cannot guarantee that phantoms do not occur…

INDEX LOCKS

Need a way to protect the index’s logical contents from other txns to avoid phantoms.

Difference with index latches:→ Locks are held for the entire duration of a txn.→ Only acquired at the leaf nodes.→ Not physically stored in index data structure.

PREDICATE LOCKS

Proposed locking scheme from System R.→ Shared lock on the predicate in a WHERE clause of a

SELECT query.→ Exclusive lock on the predicate in a WHERE clause of any

UPDATE, INSERT, or DELETE query.

Never implemented in any system.

KEY-VALUE LOCKS

Locks that cover a single key value.

Need “virtual keys” for non-existent values.

GAP LOCKS

Each txn acquires a key-value lock on the single key that it wants to access. Then get a gap lock on the next key gap.

KEY-RANGE LOCKS

A txn takes locks on ranges in the key space.→ Each range is from one key that appears in the relation,

to the next that appears.→ Define lock modes so conflict table will capture

commutativity of the operations available.

KEY-RANGE LOCKS

Locks that cover a key value and the gap to the next key value in a single index.→ Need “virtual keys” for artificial values (infinity)

Allow for a txn to hold wider key-range locks with different locking modes.→ Reduces the number of visits to lock manager.

PARTING THOUGHTS

Hierarchical locking essentially provides predicate locking without complications.→ Index locking occurs only in the leaf nodes.→ Latching is to ensure consistent data structure.

Peloton currently does not support serializable isolation with range scans.
